Scary in that I think "foreign" attacks will more often than not be carried out by domestic/US citizens that have been recruited or influenced by foreign terror organizations, like the Ft Hood shootings. That said, no idea who did this, but I'd suspect there will be a claim(s) pretty soon.

Thoughts and prayers to all. Super sad.

CNN just reporting one victim was an 8 year old child too sad for words. I`m so angry right now! Senseless violence what do these A-hole terrorists expect to accomplish by this?Whatever their issues are this will not help to solve them!
I have to turn off the tv and step away from my computer right now! Getting sensory overload. Parents hug your kids you never know what tomorrow brings!

Completely agree, I feel so much anger right now. And as always, whether it be this attack or a suicide bombing in a Kabul market, it's doubtful anyone killed or maimed had anything to do with the motives, politics or whatever was behind this attack.

Well so much for me stepping away, my brother just called to tell me his family just got home right now safe and sound. He told me he was about a block away from either side of the blasts! I just thank god he didnt get hurt, and feel so bad for others who werent as lucky!

That is completely wrong and unpatriotic. First of all, our government would never do such a thing, this is not Syria. Secondly, 80% of Bostonians voted for the current administration, so it makes no sense. Get a grip.

Huh?? Can you explain so I don't misconstrue you?
